Show transcript
A muscle attached to a bone exerts a force on the bone when the muscle contracts, which makes the bone move.
Biomechanics is the study of this movement.
A moment is the turning effect of the force when a bone pivots at a joint.
The size of the moment when a bone pivots at a joint can be calculated.
